Compressive sensing adaptation for polynomial chaos expansions
Basis adaptation in Homogeneous Chaos spaces rely on a suitable rotation of
the underlying Gaussian germ. Several rotations have been proposed in the
literature resulting in adaptations with different convergence properties. In
this paper we present a new adaptation mechanism that builds on compressive
sensing algorithms, resulting in a reduced polynomial chaos approximation with
optimal sparsity. The developed adaptation algorithm consists of a two-step
optimization procedure that computes the optimal coefficients and the input
projection matrix of a low dimensional chaos expansion with respect to an
optimally rotated basis. We demonstrate the attractive features of our
algorithm through several numerical examples including the application on
Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) calculations of turbulent combustion in a HIFiRE
scramjet engine.Comment: Submitted to Journal of Computational Physic
Quantum-inspired computational imaging
Computational imaging combines measurement and computational methods with the aim of forming images even when the measurement conditions are weak, few in number, or highly indirect. The recent surge in quantum-inspired imaging sensors, together with a new wave of algorithms allowing on-chip, scalable and robust data processing, has induced an increase of activity with notable results in the domain of low-light flux imaging and sensing. We provide an overview of the major challenges encountered in low-illumination (e.g., ultrafast) imaging and how these problems have recently been addressed for imaging applications in extreme conditions. These methods provide examples of the future imaging solutions to be developed, for which the best results are expected to arise from an efficient codesign of the sensors and data analysis tools.Y.A. acknowledges support from the UK Royal Academy of Engineering under the Research Fellowship Scheme (RF201617/16/31).

Stochastic collocation on unstructured multivariate meshes
Collocation has become a standard tool for approximation of parameterized
systems in the uncertainty quantification (UQ) community. Techniques for
least-squares regularization, compressive sampling recovery, and interpolatory
reconstruction are becoming standard tools used in a variety of applications.
Selection of a collocation mesh is frequently a challenge, but methods that
construct geometrically "unstructured" collocation meshes have shown great
potential due to attractive theoretical properties and direct, simple
generation and implementation. We investigate properties of these meshes,
presenting stability and accuracy results that can be used as guides for
generating stochastic collocation grids in multiple dimensions.Comment: 29 pages, 6 figure
